Kaliningrad Russian enclave revamping roads

First published22/11/2018

Russia’s Kaliningrad enclave has set a budget of over US$180 million for road development during the 2019-2021 period. This will be used for maintaining and improving existing roads, as well as developing new links. Regional and municipal roads will benefit from the spending programme. Although Kaliningrad is itself Russian territory, it lies in between Poland and Lithuania and is separated from the rest of Russia. To reach Russia from Kailingrad, drivers would typically pass through Lithuania lying to the east first and then either Latvia or Belarus.
